There’s cool, and then there’s ultra-cool. The Modern on Richmond is Cityview Homes’ answer to ultra-cool.

Just two short blocks from King Street, residents at The Modern will be able to enjoy the shops and restaurants in this trendy locale, or spend some quality time communing with nature in the park at St. James Cathedral. For the sports- and culture-minded, this location represents Cloud 9, with the Sony Centre for the Performing Arts, Air Canada Centre and the Distillery District all nearby. A 24/7 urban excitement underlies life in this inspiring locale.

Inspired by the building’s contemporary architecture, the interesting variety of suite layouts by Mike Niven Interior Design feature balconies, french balconies or terraces that make outdoor living part of everyday life. Plus, the M Lounge – an incredible rooftop garden with two plunge pools – will set the scene for fun, with fabulous landscaping, lounge chairs, picnic tables, a barbecue, and outdoor shower. On the second floor, called the Mod Club, residents will be able to relax around a fireplace, cut loose on a dance floor, play billiards, watch sports events on a plasma TV, catch a fantastic flick in the theatre room, or entertain friends at the bar/dining area that has a catering kitchen. Work out with the most advanced equipment in The Modern’s fitness room, get in touch with your inner peace in the yoga room or have a relaxing steam or sauna. For residents whose pets are family members, this condo will feature a pet spa, and when guests want to stay overnight, a guest suite will be available for booking. Other amenities at The Modern will include retail shops on the ground level, adding to the tremendous convenience.

Not much activity going on in this thread but the hole at The Modern is growing, so soon we will have a new condo just a block away from "Sketch City" at Queen E & Sherbourne. That can only be a good thing.

Nice view of Crack Corner some of those people will have. That might be in the strangest part of town where you have the high-end shops/bars/restaurants a block away from the sketchiest stretch of Queen in the city.

Great for the 'hood... will really be a shot in the arm for a very depressed corner of downtown. I'm not wildly thrilled about the final look, but at least it is smart and clean looking.
